OUR BOYS AND GIRLS.
THEIR LITTLE MISTAKE.

Twas nve o'clock one winter day;
Lessons were over. school was done,
And laughing, chattcring. full OF fun,
A group OF school.boys sped away,
Joyous at leaving work for play.
Then, rs though striving hard 70 shun
Their gay companions, three boys sought
A quiet corner hid from sight,
And talked In whispered words, half caught
Somewhat 70 this effect:
"You're righti
Jones Ia sneak what made him 60
And tell old Doctor Robinson
That you and Jack and had done
Tha, ugly drawing meant 70 show
The doctor minus the red wig
That covers up his bald old patef
or course we do not care ig
For punishment; nj any rate,
A hundred lines rS'ece To write-
Wen knock them on this very night
But Jones-how best To pay him outf
Thai is the thing to think about"
"I tell you what II IS" said Jack,
"I've got aplan TO pay him back.
Directly after tea tonight
We three will hide-there'll bo no light
At one end OF the corridor;
And. when Jones passes, seize him ughI
Biindfold and gag him. all before
There's time for him 10 make sound.
Then, having him oil firmly bound,
Wen carry him up stairs ut once,
And toss him In a blanket, 10
That he won't peach again, know,
Or I'm dunce.~
"Agrced agreed" his comrades said;
"wc'll have him ere wo go 10 bed"
The plan conceived was carried out
That night the three stood silently,
The shadows hiding them from view
Where Jack had said, and just about
The time when Jones would pass, they kne"
"Fe's coming nowi know his treadi
Be ready both to hold his head
And gag his mouth, while will seize
and hold him firmly by the knees"
The plot was good! Allhappcned right,
And soon the prisoner, gagged and bound,
Was gayly borne into the light,
When 10. IL wasn't Jones, they foundi

HIS FIRST THOUGHT.

He clasped her slender form,
And vowed he'd shield her from the wind,
And from the worlds cold storm.
She turned her bcautcous eyes 20 his,
Those eyes 50 large and blue,
And said: "rhen do some noble doed,
To show that you are true"
His face turned pale; he thought OF decds

lie thought OF knights OF ancient days
Who, clad In armor bright
Went forth on stecds and killed their foes
Ere came the shades OF night
But In these modern days, suSh deeds
Would hang man too quick,
And, as he thought and pondered on,
His heart turned faint and sick
And then he smiled n beaming smile,
And sorrow from him flew;

sions among her people had not opened
the door to cruel, despoiling stranger
